Ready to be pushed beyond what you think you’re capable of?
At Coinbase, our mission is to increase economic freedom in the world. It’s a massive, ambitious opportunity that demands the best of us, every day, as we build the emerging onchain platform — and with it, the future global financial system.
To achieve our mission, we’re seeking a very specific candidate. We want someone who is passionate about our mission and who believes in the power of crypto and blockchain technology to update the financial system. We want someone who is eager to leave their mark on the world, who relishes the pressure and privilege of working with high caliber colleagues, and who actively seeks feedback to keep leveling up. We want someone who will run towards, not away from, solving the company’s hardest problems.
Our work culture is intense and isn’t for everyone. But if you want to build the future alongside others who excel in their disciplines and expect the same from you, there’s no better place to be.

- Monitoring and Metrics: Implement comprehensive monitoring and metrics to track the performance and health of AI systems. Analyze data to identify areas for improvement and optimization.

- Public Cloud Management: Deploy and manage AI solutions on public cloud platforms (AWS/GCP), leveraging cloud-native services and best practices.
- Written and Verbal Communication: Excellent communication skills and experience presenting technical information to non-technical audiences, including senior leadership.
